Missing My Family.....

It is FRIDAY! Woo! I am a little sad though, I am missing my family a bit. We are all spread out through out Texas. I am originally from South South Texas. That is where Mom and Dad live. And my big brother and his wife live in Medina, Texas, the land of the beautiful Hill Country. And of course I miss my sister and her husband and my sweet sweet lil' Everett! They live in Dallas, Texas. Sam and I are in South Texas on the coast. So, we are kinda far from everyone but my mom and dad. They are about 3 hrs away.

I just really miss them all! We don't get to see eachother much. Mom and Dad bought a Ranch in Medina, Texas. A place were we can all just meet in the middle! It is a blessing.

I just wanted to share some pictures and favorite moments we all have had together!

*Also, Ladies be in prayer this weekend. Our Church is having a Women's Retreat starting tonight and through out the weekend. I am apart of the Worship Band. I am going to be leading some music...well we are all going to be leading several songs. Just pray for the Worship and the women that will be there. Pray that the Lord speaks to all of us this weekend. Pray that his Glory will fall and that we will never be the same again. Let this also be a great time of fellowship. I am alllll about making new friends!! WOOHOO! Thank you!

Prayer Requests

If you haven't yet, pray for baby Harper! She is now 3 days old. Kelly's Korner is where you can get updated on her full story. What an amazing story her and her family now have. God is using them! Kelly did mention that there are so many families and babies that have no one to pray and love on them. She has asked to pray for all the babies in NICU and their families all over the country.

My Sam and I will be going to my hometown to help my family move my grandparents out of their home and into assisted living. This is going to be hard on my Granny and not so much my Papa Ed. He is rather excited! So please be in prayer for peace in their hearts in their new home. Pray that they will feel at home in the new place. And pray for friendships to be developed as well. They are just sweet people and so special. I love them dearly!

Wreath Making!

Thursday night I made a Valentine's Day wreath. It doesn't have any hearts on it or anything. I went to Hobby Lobby and got some red hydrangeas and red peonies and of course some red berries! I got a grapevine wreath as well. It was pretty simple. Anyway, I just wanted to share my wreath with you guys! Happy Valentines Day!

Our Love Nest

Hey Hey Guys!

My camera isn't charging still, But I got Sam's camera and I went crazy!

I took some pics of things I have been up to and things Sam and I having been doing to our home. Sam inheriated this house from his grandmother after she passed away. The house is an older home so, it needs some updates. We just redid our Kitchen and I have Before and After pictures and I will be putting them up soon. Anyway, so I wanted to share these pics with you all. All of the new decor I just got is from Hobby Lobby, Marshalls, and Target. It has been so much fun!

I am still working on my living room, it still needs some things. My pics aren't the best, sorry some are blurry! Well, I hope you are blessed! Enjoy!

So here is my dining room. I added plates on the wall and added a lamp. These plates I got from Marshalls for $3.99.

Here is my Kitchen! I just wanted to show off my MacKenzie Childs Courtly Check!

Here is my new fridge! I love it. It has tons of space and storage!

Here is our bedroom. I love it now! I added the Duvett at the end of the bed and the floral pillows and the white shams.

Here is a picture up close!

Here is our NEW lamps! I let Sam pic out his own. He has pretty good taste!

These are some pictures I bought at Hobby Lobby for 50% off. I know there is a horriable glare on them! Sorry!
